Pedigree Forge includes an integrated web browser. To disable it, go to Tools > Options and uncheck Use embedded browser on the Internet tab. The home page can also be set there.

Opening a browser tab

Click the + button along the top of the tabs to open a new browser tab. Common genealogy bookmarks are shown along the top of the browser and can be customised.

Display modes

• Tab — the browser opens as a tab alongside Charts, Reports, etc.
• Separate window — use Web > New Browser Window for a floating browser window with its own tabs.
• Split pane — click the split button on the right side of the main window to show a browser panel alongside the main content. This is useful on larger screens.
